I'm a wine diva!

Hello Ai fans! 

Today I'm sharing a set that I just got at my local Michael's craft store.  It's one of the Hampton Art clear stamp sets that Art Impressions is now offering.

This set is called Wine Diva sku# SC0677 and it's a set of 8 stamps.
You get 2 images and 6 sentiments.


I made a little gift set using an old take out container.  My friends and I are all wine drinkers so this makes a cute little gift to take to a lunch or as a hostess thank you.  It's a cute birthday gift too.


Don't you just love that fun little verse...Wine a little, you'll feel better!
I know I always do!

The other verse...You had me at Merlot comes from the Ai Girlfriends Wine Tasters Set (Sku#4383).  You can also buy it as a single stamp here...Merlot (Sku#F4393)


Copics used: B0000, B21, B93, YG00, Y21, Y28, YR0000,
C00, E25, E50, E51, E57, E81, E89, E93
Tri-Art Markers: O7

Ai top three for the year

Hello Ai Fans!

This New Years we were asked to choose our top three favorite cards that we've made this year.  Not an easy task with so many amazing Ai images!

Here are my top three choices (and an honorable mention...please forgive me Kate...I just couldn't choose between these 4)

Each card has a link to my original post so you can see my supply list, copic colors and link to the stamps in the Art Impressions store if you'd like.








And...my honorable mention...

Girlfriends at a winery! Lucky them!!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing one of my favorite GIRLFRIENDS images from Art Impressions.


Bear with me...there are A LOT of pictures in this post!  I spent nearly a full day assembling two copies of this card and I want to be able to remember it when it's gone!! lol!!  I had to fussy cut 8 barrels, 8 tiny mice, two cheese platters, two sets of Girlfriends, 10 wine bottles and two wine glasses!!  I'm takin' lots of pictures!!

The cheese platter is actually from Luigi (Sku#T2832).
What a happy coincidence that his platter fit perfectly on top of the "wine" barrel.
If you look closely at the Luigi image you'll see that what I've used as a tablecloth is actually his hand holding up the tray.  Pretty cool huh? 

Here's a close up of the Girlfriends and their shiny wine glasses.

The mice may have been a challenge to trim but they were worth every second!  Aren't they the cutest thing ever!  I know no self respecting winery would really let mice run around the tasting rooms but they made this card extra special.  Furries TF (Sku#4208)

Check out the shiny "glass" window with the grapevines hanging from it!

The wall art and the wine bottles were all just printed off the internet. The Wine Taster piece is actually a sign that you can order for your house! I just shrunk it down...WAY down... Cute huh?

This is one of the verses that comes with the Wine Taster Girlfriends set.

Wine Taster Girlfriends ... Art Impressions new release BLOG HOP!!


Hello Ai Fans!!
http://www.artimpressionsstamps.blogspot.com/2014/04/challenge-133-best-of-friends-challenge.html
 Today's a very excited day over at Art Impressions!
The new 2014 Girlfriends are now available!


I've used Wine Tasters on my card.


This is one of my favorite Ai images!  Why you ask? (as if its cuteness isn't reason enough)
These are my girlfriends!  (see below) We like to drink wine.  We look for any excuse...birthdays, end of the school year,  it's Tuesday...you get the picture.  I'm lucky enough to live in the upstate NY wine country.  We have dozens and dozens of wineries right in our "backyard".

This was a bus trip we took for a friend's 40th birthday.


Here's me and my BFF on a trip we took with another friend's work group.



I made a birthday card and used part of the verse called


Here's the inside of my card with one of the sentiments that comes with this Girlfriends set.
